Big Bridge Build - Fundraising Campaign Launch

Please spread the word and help us raise the funds required to complete our fantastic community project.

Our team of volunteer builders have excelled themselves on site so far! To date, they have put in an impressive 900 hours of their time and have shoveled and handled many tonnes of blocks, concrete, sand and gravel.We are now coming out of the ground and the build is on schedule , but we are also rattling quickly through our available funds!

Not everyone can spare the hours on site, but can you help us to acquire the remaining items we need to complete our project? Are you able to fundraise in friendship groups or have you got a secret millionaire in your midst? Do you you have Ebeneezer Scrooge or a generous boss who is desperate to help the local community this Christmas?

Funding is now our priority and our online shop has all the items that we now need. If you don’t know what to buy your loved ones, how about treating them to a beautiful bar stool to perch on at the club, instead of aftershave and socks?

Some items are very small, but others will need some effort, a push and perhaps a team effort to acquire them. Could you hold a mince pie and mulled wine event or if you wish to be in great shape for the festive season, how about a sponsored fitness event? Many fundraisers are fun to take part in and enable everyone to play a part. Many small contributions soon add up! If lots of people do a little, it will get us to our goal!

It is also possible to simply donate an amount online ,should you wish to do so. Alternatively, cash or cheques can be passed to any committee member. There is usually someone on site most week days.

We need everyone to chip in now to get things going, so that we have a place to enjoy and be proud of next year and for many years to come. Our club will be 160 years old in 2020 and we intend to party in style at our newly refurbished clubhouse, but we need to build it and finish it first. Can you help?
